How to Get More Niacin Naturally
Niacin is found in a variety of everyday foods:
- Animal sources: Chicken, turkey, tuna, salmon, eggs, and dairy
- Plant sources: Peanuts, sunflower seeds, avocados, legumes, whole grains
- Fortified foods: Breakfast cereals, bread, and pasta
Your body can also synthesize niacin from tryptophan, an amino acid found in high-protein foods—but only if you’re also getting enough B2 and B6.
